Uncovering Difference-Makers on an Overlooked Offense, Plus a Potential Surprise Landing Spot for Brock Bowers – NFL Offseason Primer, Part 4
Image Credit: David J. Griffin/Icon Sportswire. Pictured: Brock Bowers.

The 2024 fantasy football season is officially here! With RotoViz TriFlex leagues and the Never-Too-Early Best Ball Tournament in full swing over at the FFPC, along with the Big Board tournament going live on Underdog, it is a great time to be alive.

No matter what type of league we’re competing in, the exercise of researching each NFL team’s salary cap situation, draft capital, and potential needs can help us write a narrative of how we believe the offseason will play out across the league. As a general guideline, early in the offseason it is better to focus on the broad strokes while having the humility to understand that we will be wrong about many of the specifics. The hope is that having done the preparation we can react quicker to breaking news and be a step ahead of our competition when predicting what is coming next.

The 2024 offseason is already promising excitement. We have a deep rookie class headlined by Caleb Williams and Marvin Harrison Jr. (and the RotoViz team is here to help you get to know them all with the 2024 Prospect Guide — available now!) There is an impressive pool of free-agent running backs including Saquon Barkley and Austin Ekeler looking to take over new backfields. Justin Jefferson, Ja’Marr Chase, and Mike Evans are just a few names of the superstar wide receivers who will be looking for new contracts. While we don’t know how it will all shake out, one thing is certain: there will be no shortage of information for us to digest and react to in the coming months.

If you haven’t already, be sure to check out the other three parts of the series:

Caleb Williams, Justin Jefferson, a Blockbuster Trade, and the Uncertain Situations that Could Define 2024

Jayden Daniels or Drake Maye (or Caleb Williams) – Which Rookie QB Will Have Big-Time Upside in this Ascending Offense?

Can Jonathon Brooks or Another Rookie Running Back Resurrect This Exciting AFC Running Game?

In Part 4 of the series we will look to uncover fantasy values on an AFC team where the hits have been few and far between over the past few years, and, at least as far as ADP is concerned, things don’t appear to be changing in 2024.

Justin Herbert and the Chargers’ Passing Game are Coming on at Exactly the Right Time

Much of the offseason narrative surrounding the Chargers’ hirings of Jim Harbaugh and Greg Roman centered on how they were going to drastically reduce the passing volume in the team’s offense. During Brandon Staley’s three-year tenure in Los Angeles, the Chargers’ average of 43 passes per 60 minutes was the second-highest in the NFL, while their average of 68 total plays was tied for third.

Week 11 WR Advanced Stats: Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp Haven’t Skipped a Beat Since Returning From Injury

In a year that has been plagued by an unusually high amount of wide receiver injuries, the Rams are perhaps the team that has been hit the hardest. With both Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp regularly being drafted in the top two rounds of fantasy drafts, the team had already found themselves without both in the early minutes of their second game of the year…....

How Should We Be Prioritizing the 49ers’ Receivers for the Rest of the Season?

The injury storylines that we have seen come out of San Francisco this season have been some of the wildest in recent memory. From their rookie first-round wide receiver suffering a gun shot wound in an attempted robbery, all the way to their all-world running back’s preseason calf strain turning into dual Achilles tendonitis that culminated in a trip to Germany for treatment, the 49ers’
